"desc": "<p>File I/O is provided by simple wrappers around standard POSIX functions. To\nuse this module do <code>require('fs')</code>. All the methods have asynchronous and\nsynchronous forms.\n\n</p>\n<p>The asynchronous form always take a completion callback as its last argument.\nThe arguments passed to the completion callback depend on the method, but the\nfirst argument is always reserved for an exception. If the operation was\ncompleted successfully, then the first argument will be <code>null</code> or <code>undefined</code>.\n\n</p>\n<p>When using the synchronous form any exceptions are immediately thrown.\nYou can use try/catch to handle exceptions or allow them to bubble up.\n\n</p>\n<p>Here is an example of the asynchronous version:\n\n</p>\n<pre><code>var fs = require('fs');\n\nfs.unlink('/tmp/hello', function (err) {\n if (err) throw err;\n console.log('successfully deleted /tmp/hello');\n});</code></pre>\n<p>Here is the synchronous version:\n\n</p>\n<pre><code>var fs = require('fs');\n\nfs.unlinkSync('/tmp/hello')\nconsole.log('successfully deleted /tmp/hello');</code></pre>\n<p>With the asynchronous methods there is no guaranteed ordering. So the\nfollowing is prone to error:\n\n</p>\n<pre><code>fs.rename('/tmp/hello', '/tmp/world', function (err) {\n if (err) throw err;\n console.log('renamed complete');\n});\nfs.stat('/tmp/world', function (err, stats) {\n if (err) throw err;\n console.log('stats: ' + JSON.stringify(stats));\n});</code></pre>\n<p>It could be that <code>fs.stat</code> is executed before <code>fs.rename</code>.\nThe correct way to do this is to chain the callbacks.\n\n</p>\n<pre><code>fs.rename('/tmp/hello', '/tmp/world', function (err) {\n if (err) throw err;\n fs.stat('/tmp/world', function (err, stats) {\n if (err) throw err;\n console.log('stats: ' + JSON.stringify(stats));\n });\n});</code></pre>\n<p>In busy processes, the programmer is <em>strongly encouraged</em> to use the\nasynchronous versions of these calls. The synchronous versions will block\nthe entire process until they complete--halting all connections.\n\n</p>\n<p>Relative path to filename can be used, remember however that this path will be relative\nto <code>process.cwd()</code>.\n\n</p>\n",
